Emp75 Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 I used to mine Rune Essence before the big update. 30gp each, sometimes even more! What big update? :o Send me a msg with explanation please? :pray: The big update hes referring to is when Jagex made 2 essences, Pure essence for p2p and 35 mining or something that can make all types of runes and Rune ess for f2p and can only make the basic runes.

willyhenriksen Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 In the early beginning I mined and smelted. Selling the results in the shop. When I got an addy pickaxe I mined ess till I could afford a rune one. Then switched to coal. :) R.I.P. Shiva and Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_Fly_High_G Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 I used to mine tin and copper at the Varrock south-east mine, smelt it into bronze bars in the Lumbridge furnace, smith into basic bronze weaponry at the Varrock anvils, sell at the Varrock sword shop, repeat. I then realized that if I mined and banked, then smelted and smithed, instead of doing the whole routine at once, I could have gone faster. :oops: Mneh, to relive the good ol' days... I did the exact same thing :x I didn't learn to mine then bank until I went and started killing things for money instead of mining, smithing, and selling because I find that I make money faster that way.. thats how its been since 99 Crafting acheived 31/01/0899 Strength acheived 17/12/07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bambino Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Before RC was out I mostly smithed and sold whatever I made to the general store, I was up to most of the steel items when I found out about essence mining. So I did that for a while, and then decided to merchant them, I thought I was very clever :). Untill I got scammed, lost 2K ess which was all I had merchanted together, haven't merchanted since and am not planning on doing so ^^. I know what I know and what I know might well not be what you want to know but then seeing as only I know what I know and you do not know what I know then you will not know if what I know is what you would like to know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darklord_99 Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 i cant belive i remember this but what i did was i would buy all the parts for full black (no kite) from the stores it would cost like 7k to buy large pl8 and legs then i would go to vorrok and sell :) then afterthat i think i moved up to makeing and selling certs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sally4th Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 When I was a new player to Runescape, I mostly killed rats and goblins like so many others. And I did lots of quests too. Once I found 500gp on the ground and I thought I was extremly rich so I went and bought fishing bait and goblin armour which I thought I could wear.

vilageidiotx Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 When i first started, i would go to places where people were died alot and take the stuff they dropped. Wasn't a really good way to make money, but it was all i knew for quite a while. Some people are like slinkies, normally they are dull, but they always give you a smile when you push them down a flight of stairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazykid1321 Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 I made my fair of profit at the Zammorak monks at about level 30-about 43 combat, no, I didn't scam people, I telegrabbed the wine when they where 1000gp each, got me from like 33-50 magic and made me a profit for over 1500k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
